Abstract

This article presents a number of reviews of productions presented in Barcelona's theatres that deal with the difficulties of engaging with a contentious or controversial past: El pan y la sal (Bread and Salt), an edited script (by Raúl Quirós) of Baltasar Garzón's 2012 trial for investigating human rights abuses in Spain directed by Andrés Lima and presented at the Teatre Lliure by Madrid's Teatro del Barrio; Iván Morales' staging of Martin McDonagh's A Skull in Connemara at the Villaroel theatre; Claudio Tolcachir's Catalan-language staging of La omisión de la familia Coleman (The Coleman Family's Omission) in a translation by Jordi Galcerán at the Teatre Romea.
